Weekâ€"end Specials ____ _ _ There is an old saying to the effect that a small boy is an appetite with with dirt on it. No one is a betker authority on this point than Mrs. C. Best. Her son, Bruce, had a birthday party last week and apparently the amount of food tucked away was amazing. Maybe they have hollow legs, too. It seems every week there is a little reminder of a do or don‘t nature for the mother, here‘s one for father: "Hide your hammer and nails," apparently some of the small fry have been hammering nails into the trees, trying to outdo Tarzan no doubt. One of the mort unfortunates slipped and ripped his chin open necessitating a few stitches. Holidaying on the home grounds are Mr, and Mrs. M. Mallock of Gaydon avenue; Mr. and Mrs. J. Scott of Emery road; Mr. and Mrs. Varey of Jasmine road; Mr. and Mrs. Seville of Aura Lea Blvd. Letters to the Editor Dear Editor: It seems as though someone‘s nose is out regarding the ladies ball teams, at least it seems that way in the article published in last week‘s paper. In regards to the rejection of players, no one has heard anything about‘ it, and it seems unfair to make such a stateâ€" ment, as the teams have quite a time keepin% the girls together to make up a ball team. Mr. and Mrs, W. Smith from Aura Lea Blvd., were visitors at Mrs. Smith‘s mother home at Muskoka. Mr. and Mrs. R. Clyde of Gaydon avenue visited Guelph over the weekâ€"end. In regards to being ejected well before the hour is strictly hitting below the belt as the practise was called for 6.30 and it was 7.00 or aft:r bg!oro ghe team showed up. So either the writer of the letter can‘t tell time, or was badly misâ€" informed.

McManis, the former Bunny Doan, a bride of three months, The bride received many lovely and useful gifts. After the gifts were opened Mrs. McManis thanked the givers.

Master Lawrence Henry of Noâ€" var is spending his vacation with his (rmzilg)lrenu, Mr. and Mrs. Henry, nox â€" Avenue, Humber Summit. An interesting feature of the church is a private entrance from the Manor House which stands a few hundred yards from the church. The manor goes back to Anglo Saxon times and the present Manor House is chiefly known for having been the home of the Penn family. William Penn, the founder of the state of Pensylvania is buried about six miles away at Jordans, a Quaker shrine, which I visited on another day. It is reached by taking a bus to Seer Green and walking about a mile. The Jordans Meeting House was built in 1688 and was one of the earli gathering places for the Quakers or Society of Friends. _ _ As might be expected the Meetâ€" ing Houge is a plain and simple building both inside and out, the Mrs. McManis was also feted at a miscellaneons shower at the home of Mrs. E.

Near the south porch still stands the ancient yew tree under which it is said that he sat and penned his famous poem. â€" The church itself dates back to 1230 AD for the south aisle, 1270 for the north aisle but it is known that a church has existed here since before 1107 AD. s Birthday greetings to Ruth Wiley.

At the ratepayers‘ meeting held Monday evening, July 19th, saw one of the largest turnouts. Why can‘t we have this number once a month, something then might be accomplished, English Journey Correspondent: Mrs. J. B. Henry Humber Summit Gad, quite a business this, m:k!‘:f the little grey cells jump around when all they want to do is rest, No doubt some of my intiâ€" mates will say that that is ail they do anyway! 2s â€" Now, let me see, the first thing on the‘ agenda to cover is the general meeting he‘d in the Comâ€" munity Hall, Chiswick avenue, on Thursday, July 22, to give an overâ€" all report on the financial situation and to obtain ideas and advice on how the money should be spent to the best advantages for the youngâ€" sters of the area. The cottage dates from about 1600 and remains much the same as when Milton lived in it. It is now a museum, administered by ten trustees and contains first editions of "Paradise Lost," "Paradise Reâ€" gained" and numerous other items. It is a most picturesque spot with a beautiful old garden. Before leaving Chalfout St. Giles a word should be said about its beautiful old church. The chancel and nave date from the 12th cenâ€" tury, the north aisle from 1260, the chance! arch from 1410, and the clock from 1710. In the entry is a list of incumbents unbroken since 1217 On the walls some very old medieval paintings have recently been discovered and are now being restored. One is a scene of the beheading of John the Baptist showing the executioner and Salome. Financially, the Gala Day was a thumping success, but as all the accounts, invoices, etc., have not yet been received, it was thought expedient at this stage to defer the publishing of figures until such time as the ledgers have been balanced, then a financial stateâ€" ment will be posted on the notice boards and in this column. The meeting unanimously passâ€" ed that immediate purchase be made of a ‘6 foot slide, Tether Tennis, Volley Ball and net, 2 horse shoe outfits, and a senior {)]ayground swing for six, the atter item being for future deâ€" livery, due to the shortage of 3 inch pipe. __ = â€" When the Plague was raging in London in 1665, Thomas Ellwood a Quaker, at the request of Milton located a small cottage at Chalfout St. Giles, where Milton moved to get away from the Plague, and it was here that he wrote most of "Paradise Lost." Inside at the rear is a sort of balcony in which is a small museum containing many original manuâ€" scripts and letters written by Wilfism Penn, and other items inâ€" timately _ associated with . the Quakers. _ â€" Just outside the front door are the graves of Wm. Penn, both his wives and nine children. Penn and his second wife are in one grave at the head of which is a small stone only with the wording "Wilâ€" 11i'?2r2 "Penn, 1718, Hannah Penn, On the way from Amersham to Seer Gree is the cott;fe at Chalâ€" fout St. Giles, where Milton wrote "Paradise‘Lost".

True Education The school of hard knocks is better for some boys and girls than the university or college. School teachers lament the fact that so many common school and high school pugils fail to go to the uniâ€" versity. But leading educationists say: "Do not forget that the classâ€" room is not the only means of eduâ€" cation." Let Us Dream Let us ride on the winds of mem‘ry The years that have gone before, W hen s weet incenseâ€"bearing In a recent report, the head of one university stressed this point: "A youth may get more intellectual and moral training from practical work that he likes than from formal lessons that he loathes." All true education is selfâ€"educaâ€" tion. Forcing young people into courses of higher education may have effects quite the opgosite of those sought. â€"Sarnia Canadian Observer. zephyrs Opened wide to us love‘s door, Let us:i dream in the golden moonâ€" tide, When the cloudâ€"free sky is blue, For our love has stood time‘s testâ€" young, When we walked through daisied meadows To the tunes our hearts had sung. shadows _ â€" On our path each mnewâ€"born day.
